The woman met 25-year-old Sandoval in downtown Santa Cruz and went with him and a small group of other people to Seascape Resort in Aptos early Friday, deputies said.

She reported the allegations about 4:30 a.m. and said they occurred at the resort, deputies said.

Sandoval was with his brother and his agent on the night in question, and his lawyer has said the sexual was consensual. Sandoval, an All-Star last year, is fully cooperating with the authorities. [Sentinelvia Erik Mal]
